Jerome Bel, The Show Must Go On

There’s no better way to sell a show: “This production contains nudity,” warn press materials for French provocateur Jerome Bel’s American debut. Known for his spiciness and experimental dance techniques, Bel has created a pop music-inspired extravaganza; sponsored by Walker Art Center, “The Show Must Go On” includes David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance” and Tina Turner’s “Private Dancer,” promising more than a little foot tapping in the audience. And possibly some eye popping too, as one male dancer breaks ranks from the troupe to perform a striptease (seen below) to Reel 2 Real’s danceteria hit “I Like to Move It.” 710 Hennepin Ave., Minneapolis; 612-339-7007; www.hennepintheatredistrict.com
